I just barely avoided the dreaded ’snack attack’.
It happened while I was sitting here reading blogs. I was right here in ‘Buddyslim Land’ and absently told my husband, “bye, have fun Honey…drive safe.” All the things I normally say when he’s off to play golf with our son and a friend. And out of the blue the thought crept in…. I think I’ll have a little snack. Then I’m thinking, what can I have? Some of that good seed bread I got with some cream cheese on it….I’ll take it out of my flex points…. or maybe a ham sandwich made with that bread and some chips..? So help me God, I even briefly thought of John’s candy drawer! And then I realized I’m thinking all of this while I’m reading blogs from buddies who are fighting this same battle, and I have the nerve to give them advice and support…what in the Hell am I thinking? I actually stopped myself on the way to a full blown binge. This is a first. I got a big glass of iced tea, my water bottle and a cup of frozen grapes. (Thanks April, you gave me that idea.) I’m enjoying them right now as I write this blog. Oh My God! Could this be a breakthrough? Do you suppose I’m cured? Well, I just had to share this. I know I haven’t blogged in a long time. In fact the last time was when I wrote my ‘naked shower’ blog and the fallout from that one sort of left a bad taste in my mouth…so to speak. lol Anyway, I hope I’m as successful next time the ’snack monster’ threatens to attack again. Right now I’m so full of water, tea and grapes, I know I’m safe til dinner.
